Join the Doc Films at University of Chicago for the
screening of Jacques Doillon's Love Battles. He will introduce this free screening and participate in a Q&A following the film.
His appearance marks the culmination of Doc Films's nine-film retrospective of his work, the first in Chicago since 1987. Doillon's shift toward character abstraction reaches its apex in his latest film, here receiving its Chicago premiere about wo characters baring all: insecurities, love, anger, anxiety, fear. The film pushes boundaries and leaves you thinking about how relationships themselves can be nothing but battles.

This event marks a rare opportunity to pay tribute to and converse with a master filmmaker!
